Funding is to be from the Law Enforcement Trust Fund, Project No. 690001, Index Code 029002-247. BACKGROUND: The Police Department supports those groups involved in assisting in the crime fighting efforts of the Department. The Model City Crime Prevention Sub -Council and Task Force is housed in the North District Substation and was incorporated in 1988. As a group, the Sub -Council is proposing that residents in the Model City assist the Police Department by patrolling tiie area and reporting any criminal activity that they may come upon. The reporting member would not try to make any apprehensions or get involved in any way, other than provide information. The group has already been provided with radios, and this funding would provide them with rental cars to patrol the area. It is, therefore, recommended that a Resolution allocating $36,864 for the funding of the Model City Crime Prevention Sub -Council, funding to be provided from the Law Enforcement Trust Fund, Project No. 690001, Index Code 029002-247, be approved. 94- 469 C-of3- I IN AFFIDAVIT STATE OF FLORIDA: SS COUNTY OF DADE : Before me this day personally appeared Calvin Ross, who being duly sworn, deposes and says that: I, Calvin Ross, Chief of Police, City of Miami, do hereby certify that this request for expenditure from the City of Miami Law Enforcement 'Trust Fund, for the funding of the Model City Crime Prevention Sub -Council, in an amount not to exceed $36,864, complies with the provisions of Section 932.7055, Florida Statutes. --� Cal n Rot -- ief of Police City of Miami Police Department Subscribed and sworn to before me this � fir day of 1994, by Calvin Ross, who is personally known to me.
